“But let the righteous be glad; let them exult before God; yes, let them rejoice with gladness. Sing to God, sing praises to His name; lift up a song for Him who rides through the deserts, whose name is the Lord, and exult before Him.” (Psalm 68:3-4)
Live the life you have been given. Do what the Lord gives you to do. Enjoy the daily life as it comes. Through it all, sing praises to the Lord who made you, knowing that it is He who created all things and shares all that He made with us. Rejoice and be glad, for God is good and gracious and shares of His bounty. Sing praises and live uprightly before the Maker of all things.
Lord, I become worried in the ups and downs of daily life and do not remember Your goodness. Help me now and always to see each day the good things You have provided in my life. Let me learn how to rejoice in all circumstances knowing that You alone are God and all goodness comes from You. May I sing praises to You now and always, Lord, for Your goodness.
Lord Jesus, thank You for coming into this world to lead us in a new way of living. Help me relax today. Not be lazy, but relax and go about the business You give me to do that I may live in praise and thanksgiving for all of Your goodness. Help me now and always to be a person of praise and to sing new songs to You for Your goodness. Ride before me, Lord, in whatever direction You will lead me. Amen.
